Default 94 ranger 2.3 timing will not advance

Noticed my truck not acellerating right lately so i put a timing light on it and noticed the timing was not advancing. Dont know where to start on a electronic ignition. Maybe icm are the computer, any suggestions?

Well I replaced the coils and the icm, that didn’t help. So I replaced the computer and it runs good but the timing still doesn’t advance timing any suggestions?
